This was shortly followed by a Daventry society, in 1797, which met in a meeting house in New Street and later built the methodist chapel in Chapel Lane, 1801. This chapel was soon closed, to be used for a school, and a new chapel, in Cow Lane, was erected in 1824. As Methodism spread throughout the locality, new chapels were erected in the villages of Braunston- 1798, West Haddon 1810 (re-erected 1847), Weedon 1811, Norton 1818, Hellidon 1820, Watford 1842, Welton 1858 and Charwelton 1887. These chapels joined the Rugby Circuit in 1806, to become the Daventry and Rugby Circuit which continued until 1860, when Rugby and some villages broke away to form a separate Rugby Circuit, the remainder forming the Daventry Circuit. This circuit consisted of chapels at Braunston, Charwelton, Daventry, Flecknoe (Warwickshire), West Haddon, Hellidon, Norton, Priors Marston (Warwickshire), Watford, Weedon, Welton and Willoughby (Warwick­ shire) . In 1931 the chapel at West Haddon was sold. This was followed by the closure of Charwelton in 1932 and later Welton 1950, Flecknoe, Hellidon and Watford 1966, Weedon 1970 and Priors Marston 1973. The four chapels still left in the Daventry Circuit amal­ gamated with the larger Rugby Circuit in 1976 to form the Daventry and Rugby Circuit. This consisted of nineteen chapels, although those at Braunston, Norton and Willoughby have applied for sale. Note: the current 1977 Daventry and Rugby Circuit consists of the chapels at Bilton, Bilton House, New Bilton, Braunston, Broadwell, Clifton, Daventry, Dunchurch, Grandborough, Lilbourne, Long Lawford, Lutterworth, Newbold, Paddox, Rugby Cambridge Street, Rugby Market Place, Rugby Wesley Road, Shawell and Stretton.

  • The Cottage Wolfhampcote | Rugby | Warkwickshire | CV23 8AR the COTTAGE
    The Cottage Wolfhampcote | Rugby | Warkwickshire | CV23 8AR THE COTTAGE Built in the late 19th century, this charming country cottage occupies a very peaceful and picturesque location within ‘the lost’ village of Wolfhampcote. It’s said to have been abandoned in the late 14th century – local legend has it that it was wiped out by the plague – and it is now home to just a farmhouse, the old vicarage, the village church and The Cottage, which in more recent times has been beautifully restored. The Cottage is situated in the delightful hamlet of Wolfhampcote and overlooks the church of St Peter and is surrounded by countryside and lies just on the Warwickshire and Northamptonshire border. The property itself was previously two farmers cottages, was believed to be constructed in around 1850 and whilst the property requires some modernisation, it is clear that such a desirable location is rarely available in the modern world. The house itself has two well proportion first floor bedrooms and a family bathroom, then on the ground floor there is a kitchen-breakfast room and sitting room. The house also has a range of very useful outbuildings including a double garage ,wash house ,large workshop and various other storage areas dotted around and attractive garden which measures 0.19 of an acre in total. The house has Northamptonshire stone elevations and a slate tiled roof and benefits from oil fired central heating and double glazed windows. KEY FEATURES Ground Floor The property has a dual-entrance porch with a back door leading to the yard and a glazed front door, the other glazed door has a double-glazed leathered window that overlooks the frontage and a further glazed door that leads to the kitchen- breakfast room.

  • Lutterworth Settlement Profile Introduction
    Lutterworth Settlement Profile Introduction General Location: Lutterworth is located just of Junction 20 of the M1 in the south west of Harborough District, 7 miles north of Rugby and 15 miles south of Leicester City Centre. The motorway forms the eastern boundary of the settlement, although the parish extends beyond. Much of the southern parish boundary follows the River Swift which skims the southern edge of the town. The south western boundary follows the line of the A5. Whilst Magna Park Distribution Centre is partially within the parish, the majority lies in neighbouring Bitteswell with Bittesby parish. The Lutterworth southern bypass links Magna Park directly to the M1, effectively forming the southern limit of the town. Lutterworth is one of two market towns in the District, the other being Market Harborough some 12 miles to the east. Due to its position in between Rugby and Leicester, Lutterworth was important in the days of coaches and horses and the survival of a number of coaching inns that bear witness to this. The town also contains some historic half-timbered buildings, some of which date back to the 16th century. The town expanded rapidly with the introduction of the railway in 1899. Lutterworth station on the Great Central Railway closed along with the railway in 1969. Some of the dismantled railway line still survives between the town and the M1. Lutterworth is identified as a Key Centre in the Core Strategy, along with Broughton Astley. As a Key Centre its role is to provide additional housing, employment, retail, leisure and community facilities to serve its own community and those in its catchment area, in a manner which seeks to create a more attractive environment for businesses and visitors to the town centre.

Little did the Council appreciate that less than 2 months later a public health emergency would impact not just West Haddon but, indeed, the country and world and, as a result, face to face meetings were postponed in favour of online meetings. We are now conversant with online meetings and able to continue business from the comfort of our own homes which should, hopefully, allow for increased engagement from our community members. As we now find ourselves fast approaching the winter and potentially the impact of more frequent extremes of weather, as well as continuing to battle the invisible enemy known so well to us all now as Covid 19, it is more evident than ever that the Council and West Haddon must ensure it is as resilient as it can be for future situations.

With the rise of rural house prices in recent years and the lack of available properties, local people are being forced to move away from their community in order to find housing they can afford. Daventry District has a growing population, to add to this the structure and size of households is also changing. When new households are formed or circumstances change, people may find their home unsuitable and it is therefore important that there is an adequate amount of housing to accommodate their needs. The provision of affordable housing is high on Daventry District Council’s agenda, as part of our vision to build a better district it is prioritised under the objective: “Healthy, Safe and Strong Communities and Individuals”. To this end the Council has been undertaking a rolling programme of affordable housing provision, which is based on robust evidence of housing need and local information – provided by Housing Needs Surveys. This report summarises the findings of the Housing Needs Survey in Holdenby Parish, undertaken in March/April 2012. Strategic and Planning Context Daventry District Council has a number of policies and strategies to help deliver housing in both planning policy and housing strategy terms.
